You could be surprised but the return on the investment is not too much related to how much you like the property or an attractive price.

Let’s try to be rational and effective. If the property is well located, enough to be able to generate interesting rentals, and the price suits our budget, we need to understand what are the basic information to acquire in order to be able to evaluate if the investment is interesting or not. We should do it before going on with every other further activity and details, once we are already convinced that it could be a good deal because we can earn.

As usual, the best thing to do is the simplest one: to calculate the ROI (Return on Investment).

We need a few reliable information in order to make sure the result will be trusted as well.
